Jesus offers us more than a Savior. And He asks from us more than just to accept His Grace "freely offered."The reality is that to follow Jesus requires something from us. Without us doing our part, we will never find the "New Life" we are promised.In this sermon we will look at how Jesus wants to change everything in our lives - but we have to agree!

Everything about the Church - about our lives as Christians - finds its origins in God. He is the source, the direction, the path. As we come to understand God, esp. the heart of God we will be changed. Not only will His love save us, it will also change us until we come to have the same heart as God.We too will want every one of His children to find their way back to Him.

Many people see churches in the U.S. as bland, predictable, even boring and certainly powerless. That hasn't been the case in the past, nor is it true in many other countries today.In this sermon we will look at the Church - as Jesus envisioned it and as God wants us to be. We will be challenged to become an unstoppable force for God IF we are willing to become like the First Christians. And today they would be viewed as RADICALS.This sermon begins our new sermon series: Radical Together based on the books by David Platt.

We talk about prayer a lot around ACC. Why? Is it really that important?In this sermon we will look at some practical reasons why Prayer is so vital - for the individual believer - and for a congregation.

The manger is one of the most common symbols that makes us think of Christmas. Jesus was not born in a manger by accident. He was showing everyone, from His very birth, His humility and servant's heart. And He calls all who follow Him to be servants as well.

When we see the star, we most often immediately focus on the Magi and their journey. Yet the Star has lessons to teach us. In this sermon we will look at two important things we can learn from the Star of Bethlehem.

The Christmas Tree is another powerful symbol of Christmas. It has much to teach us. In this sermon we look at two lessons: 1) How Jesus came to point us up to God, and 2) How Jesus came to give us eternal life.

Symbols are powerful tools for communication. God knew that and gave us symbols to teach us about Christmas. Candles are one of those symbols.In this sermon we look at all that Christmas Candles teach us about Jesus and Christmas.

If we allow our desires to control our money - we will be in deep trouble. Instead, God wants to help us take control of our money. He has a much better plan: to use our money to really make a difference, rather than just living for the moment.
